984.19 is what percent of 1099 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 1099 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 1099, so we can write it down as 100%=1099.
4. We know, that x% equals 984.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=984.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1099
2) x%=984.19
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=1099/984.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 984.19 is what percent of 1099

100%/x%=1099/984.19
(100/x)*x=(1099/984.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.116654304555*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.116654304555) to get x
100/1.116654304555=x
89.553230209281=x
x=89.553230209281

now we have:
984.19 is 89.553230209281% of 1099
